Sony and LucasArts is showing off their massively multi-player version of Star Wars due to hit computer screens next year, probably as a major salvo in the opening Summer 2002 Movie War which will undoubtedly be dominated by Star Wars, Episode 2.
Still, first looks at the game offers proof that the makers of Everquest have learned a lot from that incredibly popular role-player. The Star Wars universe will allow players to be any one of the myriad Star Wars creatures, from Gunguns to Bathans (but not, apparently, droids) and choose to be male or female. The worlds are "virtually" 16 kilometers across, but you can always hop on your Bantha to get across Tatooine in style.
